Re: Preferred gcc for use with ghc

gwright:

Hi,

What is the preferred gcc to use with ghc 6.10.1? I'm starting the long and doubtless slow process of putting together a more user friendly (and binary distributable) ghc distribution to be built using MacPorts. The guidance about gcc on the wiki is vague. Is there a best choice? Or at least some versions to be avoided?

I like gcc 4.3.2, but any recent one is probably ok. GCC on the Mac is a bit infamous for not producing as good code as on Linux though, so watch out.
